Watch Roof Icicles Violently Smash to the Ground

Winter leads to some treacherous weather, we all know that. The people at the Mt. Baker Ski Area, in Deming, Wash., also know that.

According to the YouTube description:

Mt. Baker Ski Area has been getting hammered with snow this winter. So much snow that their roof heaters couldn't keep up, and caused a pile up on the roof. Poking and breaking up the overhanging snow was the only option to get it down. What happened next was crazy!"

"What happened next" turned out to be the icicles come plunging down in an instantaneously spectacular burst that reminds us all how powerful the effects of weather can be.

No one was standing under the icicles, which was obviously good because they were sharp and definitely could've caused a wide array of injuries.
